Here are some harsh comments that former Speaker of the House John  Boehner said about Ted Cruz recently:

 LOL.  I am not surprised at all that Boehner feels this way that way about Cruz.

Cruz orchestrated the government shutdown and sat back like a weasel while Boehner took a ton of heat for that. He let the bus run right over Boehner when that happened.

Sanders loves to repeat over and over how match up polls show him as more competitive against Trump, but the problem with that is early polls mean almost nothing at this stage in the campaign. Trump would seriously move to the center if he ran against Sanders and completely crush him with negative ads (and you can imagine what the Super PACs would do). I would never vote for Trump, but if Sanders was the Democratic nominee, I would sit out the election because his writings are messed up and because he has some racial handicaps of his own.

Yeah, I'd forgotten all the sex stuff.

 

I don't think Sanders is delusional enough to believe he has a chance - but I don't know who's steering this. Some people blame the wife, but that seems convenient.

I read a very long form piece that talked about his creepy writings.  It sounded like something that would come from the brain of a very intellectually stunted adolescent- except it was from a 30-something year old grown man!

 

That video footage of Fiorina falling and Cruz not even helping her, oh boy!

There is a lot of money on the line for staff and Weaver is probably dragging this campaign out as far as he can to keep on collecting checks. As for Sanders' wife, he did pay her a salary for working on his congressional campaign, so it's conceivable she being paid now and it's possible they are trying to run this out to collect a nice windfall.

When someone falls, most people react on reflex, so it was odd to see Cruz not even attempt to help Fiorina up. I thought it was very rude and disrespectful for him not to go over and at least ask if she was all right.

       about it I think Jan is a fine supporting part for a solid daytime vet (probably someone from the P&G soaps), as opposed to someone from the production location who is clearly cheaper. Which seems to govern some casting. I get the rationale, but I would start going through the ATWT/GL, etc. rolodex myself.
    • I dont mind Jan. She's good in the minor capacity she is used. 
    • tbqh I don't care about Jan, I don't care about Ashley and I think Jon Lindstrom as Joey is an acquired taste. Jon is a great actor but certain things are in his zone and then some are not. Some days I find Joey credible and compelling, but the stuff with him hanging around the Golden Corral, grumbling about Doug and bitching at Randy is not amazing. If he had material on par with what MVJ wrote for Ryan/Kevin on GH back in the day it'd be a different story. I do think he has real chemistry with Vanessa, which is in large part due to MVJ clearly molding that character (and hiring an appropriate actor) in the Lucy Coe vein when she reinvented Lucy in the '90s as well. But I am not here to spend 6+ months watching Jon glower a lot (which is what he's doing half the time to carry weak story) and make more vague dire pronouncements while Jen Jacob gets flustered and weepy over "Daddy" or whatever would come of that storyline. Putting them together sounds like a recipe for doom to me. But I may be in the minority on that.
    • I know this will never happen. But... Halle Berry as Dani Dupree(BTG). She would rock this role, it's in her wheelhouse.
    • When I see how bad the Ashley/Derek scenes are, I know there must be a larger purpose and Joey being her father is the thing that makes the most sense.  My take on it is that Ashley knows Joey is her father but doesn't know Joey. Maybe he was there when she was a child or just not around at all but I believe Jan when she says she didn't lie to her daughter about who her father was. Maybe she left him when she discovered his dangerous lifestyle.  I do think they could really jump start the character of Ashley if they hurry and do this. Jan is a great character and her scenes with Ashley have been helpful. This would further integrate Ashley into the canvas and give her something dramatic to do. With her working at the hospital along with Doug, it could lead to complications if she learns Doug is involved with her father. I just need is sooner rather than later because Derek is tanking her character. I need a distraction.
